context_menu

Context menus: a menu that opens where you right-click, or press the context menu key, inside an area.

context_menu.area("file-actions", [], [file_preview]),
context_menu.menu("file-actions", [], [
  menu.item([event.on_click(Rename)], [text("Rename")]),
  menu.item([event.on_click(Duplicate)], [text("Duplicate")]),
  menu.separator(),
  menu.item([event.on_click(Delete)], [text("Delete")]),
])

Its items are howdy/ui/menu items, with the same keys: arrows, Home, End and typeahead, Escape to close. A context menu is a shortcut, so offer its actions somewhere visible too: touch screens and many keyboards have no way to open it.
